During a scorching summer if a fan suddenly stops working then it becomes nothing but an additional headache. At times we don't have the patience to call an electrician to repair the table fan. Therefore we tend to look for some table fan repairing ways on the internet or the manual. Lucky for you I learned how to repair table fan last summer. Read on to know how to fix table fan not rotating.
Check if the fan is working by switching it into multiple outlets.
Now if the fan still isn't working unplug with fab and unhook the blade guard or unscrew the pin.
Move the blades in the centre of the fan anti-clockwise to remove the blades.
Now you need to slide the back half of the blade guard off in the middle of the pin.
Turn your fan and check the screws in the back.
Flip the pin on the front of the fan and check if it is spinning.
Now block the base of the pins by unscrewing the washers or bolts.
If the pin is sticking you will have to use a lubricant. Oiling the pin can work.
Rotate the bolts around the lubricated part when you are spinning it.
Now it's time to clean the motor.
Plug the fan into the switch and check if it's working.
If it is working then resemble the parts such as blades, bolts, and case and put the whole thing together.
Well, it is better to call an electrician if you are not able to fix a table fan on your own. You should not misuse or play with electric appliances. It can be harmful.

During this summer, our table fan started making rattling sounds and I was really annoyed. I planned to call an expert but my husband insisted on doing it himself. He knew how to repair a table fan so he gave it a try. It took around half an hour and the fan started working fine. So let me share what method he followed here.
To fix a table fan, you will first need to identify the issue. In our case, the fan was making a weird sound and the speed seemed to have slowed as well. My husband therefore
Switched off the power supply first
Then he removed the clamps on the outer side of the fan
Once its done, he started detaching the blades by rotating the knob
Since all the parts had been dismantled, the next step was to clear all the parts. I cleared all of them with a damp cloth
Then we reassembled the parts again in order and finally the fan started working fine
Start by ensuring the fan is plugged into a working power outlet. Verify the power switch and try a different socket.
Examine the fan blades for any obstructions or damage. If there is, try to remove it as fast as you can for its smooth performance
Apply a few drops of lubricating oil to the fan motor. This can enhance performance and reduce noise.
If the fan has a fuse, inspect and replace it if necessary.
Assess the fan's speed control switch for faults. Replace if needed, ensuring compatibility.
Inspect the capacitor for any signs of damage or leakage. If found, replace it with a compatible component.
So these are some basic checkups and solutions on how to repair a table fan. But if you find the issue serious, hire a professional.
